The Eagles (7-8) are going to visit the Washington Redskins (5-10) in an NFC East divisional game in their final game. Both squads are at the bottom of the division rankings and have been removed from playoff contention this year. Philadelphia had a lot of press buzz before the start of the year being described the dream team with their impact in the free agent market.

Nevertheless, they have not quite lived up to the really high expectations and have had their fair share of challenges this year with accidents to essential players such as quarterback Michael Vick. They still have something to play for as Philadelphia Eagles head coach Andy Reid is possibly on the hot seat for remaining the squad’s coach next year.

With an injury to his toe, Washington Redskins running back Roy Helu is doubtful to play one time again. Their absence of depth at the running game combined with their vulnerable offensive line will be tough to get over with essential Philadelphia Eagles defensive players doing well such as defensive ends Jason Babin and Trent Cole. It will be up to Redskins quarterback Rex Grossman to have an excellent passing game for them to have any type of chance. The Philadelphia Eagles are averaging about 400 yards on offense per game and you can expect them to do just as well with the team of a healthy Michael Vick at quarterback and running back LeSean McCoy. Philadelphia cornerback Asante Samuel isn’t likely to compete with a hamstring injury.
In spite of both squads not earning a playoff place for the 2011 year, they still would like to end on a good note and come out on top for the final game of the year. The Eagles are faves in this particular game to the underdog Washington Redskins with a line of -9. The over/under for points is at 46.5.
